Before we embarked on this VIA activity, we assumed it would be no different from the ones we had completed in the past. We expected it to be just another task where we fulfilled the requirements, logged our volunteer hours, and moved on. At the time, we saw it as simply another entry to add to our portfolios. But how wrong we were.

Term 1 was a period of new beginnings — both for the J2s and the new J1s. Here is a look back on some of its highlights:

Want out of the rut of choosing the same few dishes in the college canteen and cafe? There’s no need to venture beyond campus grounds in search of eateries slightly off the beaten track; your hectic schedule doesn’t need any more of such frivolous wastes of time! Alternative food options await at the fingertips of all EJ’s students and staff, namely the vending machines stashed with a repository of ready-made meals, breakfast items and snack foods!

Yet, once every year in late January, there comes a day when the Eunoian throws out all notions of ease to embark on a majestic quest for glory — for self, for class, for House and for school. This great quest is called “Spartan”.

Continuing our 2025 CCA Showcase, Part 2 turns the spotlight to Eunoia Junior College’s Performing Arts CCAs. In this installment, creativity takes centre stage as our students find a space to express themselves and experience the joy of showcasing their talents with like-minded peers.

Part 3 of the 2025 CCA Showcase brings Eunoia Junior College’s Sports CCAs into focus. Grounded in teamwork, perseverance, and commitment, these CCAs offer students a space to grow through challenge, strengthen camaraderie, and experience the rewards of striving together.

Regardless of whether you're a prospective student wondering about the CCAs Eunoia has to offer or a current student reminiscing about your CCA journey, a warm welcome to Part 1 of Eunoia Junior College's 2025 CCA showcase. CCAs are the heartbeat of Eunoia - on top of providing a safe space for students to meet like-minded peers and explore their interests, they serve as a platform for students to pick up new skills and forge unforgettable memories.

Designed to complement student life beyond CCAs, Eunoia Junior College's special programmes offer structured opportunities for students to deepen their interests, broaden their perspectives, and grow through purposeful engagement beyond the classroom. In doing so, they empower students to take initiative, develop critical skills, and explore their potential in meaningful ways.

For all Eunoians, Term 3 was a term filled with excitement and emotion. Here is a look back at some of its highlights.

We have a sole purpose: to find the ultimate Hidden Gem amongst all the hidden gems. Why did we subject ourselves to this potentially risky operation that would make our tongue lose faith in our dietary choices? Why, to further our research in bigback science, and perhaps to show these food a little love and attention it needs once in a while.

Then, at 9 o’clock in the morning, I opened my text messages and read: “Dear student, you are posted to Eunoia JC under 2025 JAE.” My first thought was, “What will the people be like? Will they all be from Catholic High, SCGS, and SNGS? I hope I don’t

It is often a daunting task for many who struggle to narrow the 8+ subjects they are taking to just 4. It can be a tough decision — how are we to know what we want to do at just 17? Should I try something new like Economics? Or should I perhaps stick with the subjects I know and l

To a somewhat large extent, yes. As of late, any TikTok or Instagram user would have likely chanced upon at least one campaign post from any Junior College (JC) in Singapore. This wave of TikToks and social media posts herald the start of the student council elections in JCs. Campaigning is a far cry from the primary and secondary school methods of electing student councillors, who are typically picked by teachers. In JCs however, students are given a greater voice in choosin

From the spirited cheering to the mass dances to the cacophonies of laughter, Orientation ‘22 was nothing short of exhilarating. With fun-filled games and the lively atmosphere of Orientation helped to break the ice between the J1s. Many Eunoians would agree that orientation is one of the highlights of their JC experience and it is definitely an indispensable one indeed.  But behind the success of Orientation ‘22 was an enormous team of almost 200 J2s who worked tremendously

Exhilarating. Refreshing. Fulfilling.  These are the words used to describe this year’s Spartan Race. And indeed, it was all these words and more! After all, the Spartan Race was created to test our physical limits, strengthen our bonds, and allow us to have lots of fun in the process. Akin to the spirit of ancient Spartans from 2500 years ago, our Eunoians were pitted against each other as well as themselves, as each student strove  to do their best to make their house proud

Ending the year with a final hurrah - the annual House Parties! We bring you insider takes on behind-the-scenes action.

Celebration, commendation, and the year in review.

J1s, you're probably wondering "which CCA should I choose?" Eunoia boosts a myriad of CCAs, and is home to numerous clubs and societies, sports, and aesthetics CCAs, all of which are for your choosing! With CCA Carnival approaching on the 7th of February, you may be scrambling to decide which CCA to join. Frankly, that's a tough decision, as there are simply too many to choose from. But fret not, here's a full list of all available CCAs and student interest groups in EJ! 

“Should I take Arts or Science? Or what about Hybrid . . . ”  Deciding on one’s subject combination is one of the toughest decisions a JC student will have to make. Hopefully, ‘You and Your Subject Combination’, our article on subject combinations and subjects Eunoia has to offer will help you better weigh the Marginal Private Benefits (MPB) and Marginal Private Costs (MPC) of your decisions.

Considering taking a H3 subject? Included in this article are interviews with students taking the various H3 subjects which can help with your decision-making.

The art students also did not miss out on any learning! Read more about what the recent Eunoia GO trip to the UK offered them.

'I think this trip also made me think a lot about what I define as Music, or rather Art as a whole' The Eunoia GO trip to the UK has different activities for students in different subject combinations, find out more about what the music students experienced here!
